Rewriting domain URL in address bar

Resolved

Hiya

I have my blog domains correctly mapped, eg:

example.com.au -> example.webhive.com.au

but the URL isn’t rewritten in the address bar. I’m still seeing example.webhive.com.au.

I have permanent redirect set, and the domain’s set as primary.

My .htaccess is:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# increase upload file limit
php_value upload_max_filesize 2M
php_value post_max_size 2M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
# END WordPress
php_flag eaccelerator.enable 1
php_flag eaccelerator.optimizer 1

My multisite is http://webhive.com.au.

An example is rotarymerimbula.org.au.

I’ve disabled all plugins on the blog.

Thanks!
Jackie

Do you have the primary domain check disabled in the DM settings? If not, which URL is the primary domain on the site in question.

Hi Ron

Thanks for replying!

No, primary domain check is not disabled. Primary domain is rotarymerimbula.org.au.

Have put screen shots here – http://webhive.com.au/troubleshooting/

I have this problem across all my blogs. I usually solve it with the ‘Home’ setting but that causes other problems. (It breaks the login and Jetpack settings links.)

It didn’t happen with the first couple of blogs I created. I’ve tried disabling all plugins on the blogs, to no avail. (I haven’t tried disabling all plugins on the main blog though.)

Thanks!

Check the source of the page on the front end of the site and see if there is a blank line at the top.

Start of source is
```
<!DOCTYPE html>

```
(No blank line there)
Start of page div is:
```
<div id="page" class="hfeed">

	<header id="branding" role="banner">

    	<div id="header-content" class="clearfix">
```
Is that what you mean? – the blank lines between the page div and the header?

No, a blank line at the beginning could break the redirect if it was being added to the output before the redirect.

I checked http://rotarymerimbula.org.au/ and it doesn’t look like it’s WP
```

Sorry Ron, I redirected rotarymerimbula.org.au to their old site last night. Should have posted a new test link.

damondavies.com has the same problem.

Still don’t understand – a blank line at the beginning of what? By output, you mean the page source? (Sorry to be a dunce lol. I don’t understand why page contents would affect the address bar unless there’s a directive in the header.)

By output, you mean the page source?

Yes.

You have a redirect somewhere that is redirecting the domain to the unmapped domain. According to the settings you have described the domain mapping plugin should be redirecting to the mapped domain (resulting in an endless redirect loop).

Since you do not have the redirect loop can you confirm that you have

Disable primary domain check. is not checked
damondavies.com is set as the primary domain

Found it. At last! Cloned my multisite so I could pull it apart and found it was a conflict between the WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin and the Multisite Plugin Manager plugin.

Thanks for your help Ron.

Did you disable the MPM plugin or did you have to do something else as I was planning on using both on a particular project?

All the best.

Yes I ditched the Multisite Plugin Manager.

I’ve created a template blog and am using blog copier, so I can live without MPM.
